Like I said obesity is common in autism because of ABA and positive reinforcement through unheallthy food. Very recently the schools have stopped this unhealthy practice used with ABA. Michelle Grumpy you could have your child feed through feeding tubes just ask a doctor. There is Pediasure and generic childrens nutrition shakes I have tried them and I can stand the taste and these nutrition shakes can be used for tube feeding as well. I will love to ask Kim Rossi for a radio interview to get the prespective of a "High Functioning" person with autism.

That really didn't look that bad to me. She was just trying to get something out of his hand. I know sometimes real abuse happens, but that wasn't abuse. It seems like the media likes to blow up nothing stuff like that.

I recall seeing an article, I think it was on free though project, where a kid recorded their own abuse with a school provided ipad, then was prosecuted under some obscure wire tapping law for it. Now, that's abuse.

Um, autism isn't a gift. It's immune induced encephalopathy. And the gifts are just what's left over from the real gift that they should have had but was stolen from them for profit.

My pattern recognition is 125 on IQ tests. My memory is 95 (and that makes it look better than it really is). I was born to be high IQ. But instead I am left with this. Makes me wonder what my IQ would have been without all the memory damage and damage to other sectors.

Dude: The film is "Trace Amounts," and the filmmaker is Eric Gladden, whom I had the pleasure to meet at the CDC protest in October, 2015. Well worth watching.

Atlanta is home to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.

Hopefully CDC policymakers and staff will read the article and rightly feel the “great shame” admitted by would-be whistleblower Dr. William Thompson.

My son could fall in that "malnourished" category. His gut disease robs him of the ability to properly use the tons of calories he eats. Organic, nourishing, pure calories in the above and beyond broke-ass diet we provide him. He eats, but doesn't gain weight. More than the crickets from society to help his mother (all of us mothers) are the crickets from the very medical facility she dropped him off in help untangling the myriad of issues causing the "malnourished" teen/adult. Causing the issues that make his care more than any human mother can bear - single or married - for as long as we must. For as many shifts in a day that we must.

Just heartbreaking all around.

Malnourished the media says, Hmm...maybe she was abuses him! Why? Because the developmentally disabled in wealth countries have their behavior modified through ABA and other ways. These therapies us positive "reinforcers" especially rewarding the child or teen with unhealth food like candy and chips leading to gross obesity. Malnourishment is very rare in the USA and Canada and many places in Latin America as well.

I predict the loud .. angry .. uncompassionate voices of the 'neuro-diversity' mob will begin spewing vicious attacks on this obviously desperate mom .. demanding her arrest and incarceration for child abuse of a child who has been blessed with the gift of autism.

I also predict this desperate overwhelmed mom will not be featured in the annual .. Autism Speaks .. light it up blue … 'CELEBRATE AUTISM AWARENESS' month

The fundamental is the absence of support, insight or understanding which would make life viable for autism families, despite all the politically correct “awareness” cop-out. Sadly, I fear, seeing an undernourished child the first thing the hospital will do is make sure he has got all his shots.
